Does anyone have this issue with the biggest incision

How far out are you? Week 3, I had nerve pain where it felt like it was ripping and on fire. Especially when I sneezed or coughed. Unfortunately, that's pretty normal. Wearing an abdominal brace for a few days and massaging around the area really, really, really helped me.

I'm not even a week out Thursday will be my week

I'm not even a week out Thursday will be my week

Yes had major ripping burning pain from week 2-4. Woke up on my 4th week and pain gone, but becareful turning in bed has caused me to tear it again.... Standing at first hurts but the longer your up the pain goes away. Hope it heals fast.

Thank you !!!! I try to only lay on back I have always been a side sleeper or tummy sleeper so I'm going crazy!!! Lol may I ask how much u lost n how far out u are

I'm only 4 weeks out and have lost 26lbs, was hoping for more but it's in the right direction... I have 200lbs to lose, ouch.

I'm in the same boat I was 362 and I weighed myself today I'm 340 I'm less than a week out is this possible

I had the same sort of pain for several weeks( im 8 weeks out now.) Mine was complicated by the development of a seroma. My surgeon had to reopen the incision for it to drain. That said, that incision is the one through which they remove the excised stomach. It's going to hurt more than any other.

And yes, that loss is entirely possible in a week. At two weeks out, I'd lost 32lbs, including 8 from pre-op.

Awesome what is seroma

I have been having a lot of pain with the incision. I've been to the er twice now cuz I can get any relief. I can't stand up to walk, cant do my exercises cuz I can't stand straight. Only thing that helps is dilaudid and I can't take that home obviously. Ugh I wish it would disappear.

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope it gets better soon for u have ur docs told u wat it can be

I'm sorry to hear that

I hope everyone feels better soon

Docs are just saying its pain from the trauma of everything coing out and being pulled. I dont understand how proper can have no pain after this surgery. I get irrotatedcuz my mom will say "u just had a major surgery, u will have some discomfort." If it was discomfort I could handed it. I have fibroyalgia so I know all about discomfort.

Hmm wow I'm really sorry I truly hope u get better ill pray Ull feel better

I had my done 09/07 and have this really painfull and sore point. It burns and feels like ripping when I cough and try to bend ! it was ok before but started hurting a couple of days ago after a little cough and getting out my bed
